This study is concerned with the moderating role of life satisfaction in the relationship between resiliency and general health in a sample of students. 75 students from among those studying at the Islamic Azad University of Shahr-e-Ray (65 girls and 10 boys) were involved in this study and asked to complete Ego Resiliency Scale (ERS), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28). The research results indicate that there is a significant negative correlation between resiliency and satisfaction with life and the general health problems. Results of the analysis carried out on the chief and moderating effects based on the structural equations suggest that satisfaction with life could moderate the relationship between resiliency and general health problems of the students. Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that the relation between satisfaction with life and resiliency and genera health is not merely a simple one and the interaction between different variables could differently influence general health.
